Grading Guidelines:
1. An assignment submission is considered complete only when correct and executable code(s) are submitted along
with the documentation explaining the method and results. Failing to submit either of those will be considered an
invalid submission and will not be considered for evaluation.
2. Assignments submitted after the deadline will affect your grades.
Grading:
Ans Date Ans Date
Correct On time A 100
80% & above On time B 85 Correct Late
50% & above On time C 75 80% & above Late
50% & below On time D 65 50% & above Late
E 55 50% & below
Copied/No Submission F 45
● Grade A: (>= 90): When all assignments are submitted on or before the given deadline
● Grade B: (>= 80 and < 90):
o When assignments are submitted on time but less than 80% of problems are completed.
(OR)
o All assignments are submitted after the deadline.
2. Work on each feature of the dataset to create a data dictionary as displayed in the below
image:
2.1 Make a table as shown above and provide information about the features such as its data type
and its relevance to the model building. And if not relevant, provide reasons and a description of the
feature.
3. Data Pre-processing
3.1 Data Cleaning, Feature Engineering, etc.
4. Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA):
4.1. Summary.
4.2. Univariate analysis.
4.3. Bivariate analysis.
5. Model Building
5.1 Build the model on the scaled data (try multiple options).
5.2 Perform PCA analysis and get the maximum variance between components.
5.3 Perform clustering before and after applying PCA to cross the number of clusters
formed.
5.4 Briefly explain the model output in the documentation.
6. Write about the benefits/impact of the solution - in what way does the business (client)
benefit from the solution provided?

Perform hierarchical and K-means clustering on the dataset. After that, perform PCA on the
dataset and extract the first 3 principal components and make a new dataset with these 3
principal components as the columns. Now, on this new dataset, perform hierarchical and K-
means clustering. Compare the results of clustering on the original dataset and clustering on
the principal components dataset (use the scree plot technique to obtain the optimum
number of clusters in K-means clustering and check if you’re getting similar results with and
without PCA).
